From the specs, the power input is 37V-57V so does this mean that the switch or router providing the PoE, needs to provide a minimum of 37W per port?

I would like to use this with a TP-Link Festa FS318GP, which provides 30W PoE per port.

Hi @Piers289260

Not quite, Watts are a function of Volts x Amps, in the case of your switch it supports 802.3at as a standard and will be enough to power a Pi5 with this hat.

Perfect, thanks for the reply @Dan.

And now I re-read my message in the cold light of day, I realise that I conflated volts and watts :man_facepalming:

Hey @Piers289260

No worries at all, we’re all human. :slight_smile:

If you have any further questions feel free to ask.

Hello again. Do you have a height for this board please? I’m trying to confirm that it will fit in the HighPi Pro 5S case.

Hey @Piers289260,

The tallest component on this HAT when connected to the Pi 5 is the headers, which I measured to be approximately 10mm. I tested the HAT with a Pi 5 inside the case you linked, and it fits well!

Will a low profile heatsink fit under this board, don’t like to run Pi without heatsink.

Hey @James46717,

That heatsink, while close, will be slightly too tall to fit between his PoE HAT and the Pi 5. The inbuilt fan on the PoE hat seems to do an adequate job of keeping everything cool.

If you are looking for a solution that includes a heatsink, maybe a setup using this alternative PoE HAT for the Pi 5 would work better for you as it has a lot more room to fit some heatsinks on the Pi.

Hope this helps!

@Samuel Thanks for your response, by the pics I thought it probably would not but it was not 100% clear..

Hi team, It looks as though the securing screw for the NVMe is missing from my board.
